How Do You Draw Kissing People? It Always Seems Like Magic To Me People Can Do That 🥺

How do you draw kissing people? It always seems like magic to me people can do that 🥺

Yes, it's totally spelled "Necesarrily". I must confess I'm not a pro at smooches, but these are the few stuff I think about when I draw kisses.

Hope it gives something, haha ;_; <3

.................................... Then down below is my general advice (with kiss example) about any drawings where characters touch each other. Idk how other people do it, but here's my jam. I hope it's not too messy and weird. Probably is, since I'm messy and weird &lt;3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ~~How objects turn around a focal point~~

So, let's break things down into the simplest shape and... think of heads like balls. In how many places can two balls touch at one go? Just one, right? Like........

BAM. A focal point has been birthed. It is pink, magical, and has the power to bend worlds. ALAS, heads are not balls, and have other shapes to consider. Here's where you gotta think about how the shapes rotate around that simple focal point... Then practice, experiment, scream into the void, and practice some more. A sloppy little neck smooch for example.

The temple of the right character touches the neck of the left - this is how their body parts could interact. There are many combos, play with the balls and find out, ayyy. Have another "in-depth" example with kissing, several shapes:

Focal point set on character "R" --- how do we join "L"?

Incompatible combo, as per my ugly shapes. "L's" nose stabs "R" from cheekbone to the mouth. Ouch. Their foreheads are also inside each other. Superouch --- So, how to fix it?

Initiate brainpower and rotate "L".

Nice, no more nose stabbing the cheekbone. The forehead of "L" is facing away from "R" so they don't touch, cool cool.

I feel like I suck at explaining shit and make stuff complicated

Now we magically have a smooch made from ugly shapes.

GL practicing, fren <3
